Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Ecology

Toby J. A. Bruce mainly investigates Botany, Aphid, Ecology, Insect and Agronomy. His Botany study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Olfactometer. His Herbivore, Olfactory receptor and Host study are his primary interests in Ecology.

The various areas that he examines in his Olfactory receptor study include Host plants and Adaptation. His Insect study incorporates themes from Pheromone and Sex pheromone. His research on Agronomy frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Agroforestry.

His most cited work include:

  • Insect host location: a volatile situation. (874 citations)
  • Stressful 'memories' of plants: evidence and possible mechanisms (529 citations)
  • Perception of plant volatile blends by herbivorous insects – Finding the right mix (447 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Toby J. A. Bruce focuses on Botany, Agronomy, Aphid, Olfactometer and Biotechnology. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Botany, Adaptation is strongly linked to Host. His studies examine the connections between Agronomy and genetics, as well as such issues in Herbivore, with regards to Insect and Plant defense against herbivory.

Toby J. A. Bruce usually deals with Aphid and limits it to topics linked to Sitobion avenae and Mycotoxin and Fusarium. His study on Olfactometer also encompasses disciplines like

  • Methyl salicylate which connect with Decanal,
  • Horticulture that connect with fields like Sitodiplosis mosellana and Midge. His Biotechnology study combines topics in areas such as Genetically modified crops and Agriculture.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (34.27%)
  • Agronomy (32.02%)
  • Aphid (16.85%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Botany (34.27%)
  • Aphid (16.85%)
  • Olfactometer (16.29%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Toby J. A. Bruce mainly focuses on Botany, Aphid, Olfactometer, Myzus persicae and Agriculture. Toby J. A. Bruce combines subjects such as Methyl jasmonate and Nonanal with his study of Botany. His research integrates issues of Midge, Terpene, Nerolidol, Bioassay and Chemical ecology in his study of Olfactometer.

His Myzus persicae research focuses on Plant virus and how it connects with Aphis and Host. His study with Host involves better knowledge in Ecology. His studies in Agriculture integrate themes in fields like Agroforestry, Weed and Environmental planning.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Cucumber mosaic virus and its 2b protein alter emission of host volatile organic compounds but not aphid vector settling in tobacco. (29 citations)
  • Prospects for plant defence activators and biocontrol in IPM – Concepts and lessons learnt so far (21 citations)
  • Foundational and Translational Research Opportunities to Improve Plant Health. (18 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Biological pest control, Biotechnology, Terpene and Bioassay. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cucumovirus, Host and Nicotiana tabacum. His Biotechnology research includes themes of Sustainable agriculture and Food security.

His Terpene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Electroantennography, Gene, Elicitor and Stemborer, Chilo. The concepts of his Bioassay study are interwoven with issues in Bird cherry, Rhopalosiphum padi, Japonica, Oryza sativa and Olfactometer. His biological study focuses on Myzus persicae.
